1968 Moon Photo Shows 10 Mile Long Spacecraft

OK, hold onto your hats, my friends, there's a photo just released that's supposed to be from 1968 that was taken during a Lunar Orbiter mission to the moon that shows a spacecraft right in the middle of the Moon's crater Manlius. 

As if an alien spacecraft showing up in a moon photo isn't enough, they've measured it and concluded that it's ten miles long. Yes. That's 10 MILES long.

Most of the ship shows up quite well in the photo with the sun brightly illuminating almost all of it. Manlius is 20 miles wide and the ship takes up just about half of the crater, so that's how they figured it must be 10 miles in length.

The photo comes from a YouTube video released on October 4th. According to a blog post from UFO Sightings Daily on October 5th, the ship is a UFO that NASA was studying back then and was the actual target for some of the Apollo moon missions.

The video was taken by Lunar Orbiter III (frame 3073) sent back in 1967 to photograph potential landing sites for future Apollo missions.

For you non-believers, one possible explanation of the ship, er let's say "object" for you, is that it's an optical illusion because of a depression that occurs in the center of the crater. The "object's" contours, however, are outlined quite well by the sun's shadow where it meets the crater's rim, so it really is a spaceship, OK?

There's also a road up there. Yes. The Lunar Orbiter photo also shows even more evidence of something artificial there: a road that looks like it's about 60 miles long right there on the moon’s surface. The road is straight as an arrow and goes from one end to the other of the photo, suggesting that it's even longer than 60 miles.
